What price is the gtx 950 you’re looking at?
Wow, older cards are more poweful?! Then i probably go for used 770, thanks!
Sorry i’m not from USA or Europe, and our currency tanked down recently so my prices wouldn’t make sense.
There’s also risk involved of course since warranties and such will have run out in most cases.
Yeah, i understand that. But i found nice price for used gtx 960 and even with 2 years warranty. So probably go with used gtx 960. Hope my core i3 4130 will be enought for such nice GPU.
Thanks everyone.
your cpu can run the gpu fine
I have a feeling it’s both your cpu and gpu but I don’t know which one is affected more
but buying the gtx 960 is probably smarter in case you do want to upgrade your whole pc later, you can still use the 960
make sure u have a compatible psu
buy a used 760, stronger then both the cards you are talking about
gtx 760 is stronger than gtx 960?
oh it is
Its stronger then a 950 and a 750 and cheaper then both. You know, the two cards he said he can afford.
Part of the problem when people ask a pc questions… its just get the extra money together and buy the stronger card… AFTER he just told the thread twice he couldn’t afford it. I actually gave him a solution to his problem, not just get the extra money together and buy a 960.
the 960 and 760 are close to identical in power, about an 11 percent power difference between the two. The 960 shines in less power consumption and noise, but the 760 isn’t bad at that anyway.
before me suggesting he throw in extra to get the 960, he didn’t mention his budget or that he had a tight budget
he only mentioned he was looking at the gtx 950
it was after I suggested it that he mentioned his situation
we are all here to help each other out and we were just giving him other options and suggestions
it was after that he mentioned he had a tight budget but it seems he found the 960 within his price range

I have no problems running everything at max on 1080p. Shading looks better than the PS4 version (hopefully sorted out at launch). This game runs so much better than MKX.
Just got my new Gtx 960, all settings on high and solid 60 fps. Thanks everyone for helping!
NP =)
Which one did you go with if you didn’t go with EVGA?
Very nice
I always liked the gfx on the box for those lol
Is it running quiet/cool?
Look forward to playing with ya online
It’s very quiet! Especially when you surfing internet or watching video fans are in idle mode. When you start gaming you barely hear them spinning.
My highest temperature was 65 celsius and it was in Heaven benchmark. So 960 is quiet and cool, i like it ^^
How should a fx 8320 oc 4.0-4.5
Gtx 960
8gb ram run? 1080p high?
Easily
Try on max settings
But on high you will hit constant 60 easy for sure
If anything put try it on high and put texture and effects on max. post processing on medium
Anybody have any experience with a R7 370? Looking into buying a new PC and just seeing where I can save money.
Other option would include a GTX 970 which I know would be fine.
R7 370 is on par* with the graphics card in the PS4 but that’s not saying much, and it’s a weak card compared to other things you could get. A 970 is in a completely different league. That said, an R7 370 will run SF5 fine, but probably not with every setting maxed out. It’s not very good value for money if you want to play other games that are more demanding, but I could see it being viable in a budget build dedicated to SF5.
*on par in terms of real life performance. at a hardware level it’s probably more powerful than the ps4’s gpu.
@freddie Thanks for the comment.
The other build has a better CPU, liquid cooling, and a SSD so it would probably have a healthier life span compared to the cheaper build. Might end up dishing out the extra $$$
